Artist Information
Born and bred in "The West Side" (of Singapore, that is),formed 2002, these musicians from "Gomz Street" met over a strong affinity for music, with the likes of The Quests, The Swallows, Stoned Revivals, Siglap Five and MC5. And as quickly as they bonded, The Pinholes' profound passion for music evolved into a unique sound. Expect a brilliant blend of kaleidoscopic beats and compositions that capture the soul of the Stray Dogs, the dynamism of Mick Jagger and the harmonic pitching of Beach Boys.
Comprising the power-packed act quartet that is all out to make your day. This tightly-knit bunch has no doubts about delivering an awesome party, no objections to a special collaboration and definitely no qualms about performing great music while having their tongues-in-their-cheek; all of those at the same time!
With the tongue-in-cheek ‘Shake & Bake’, refreshing ‘Never Gonna Take My Life’ and the catchy sing-along ‘Longlive Rock N’ Roll’, the band has captured the imagination of both the young and old. Their snazzy, original tunes have been performed live on Suria MediaCorp TV; Perfect 10 98.7FM & Ria 89.7FM radio shows; Lime Sonic Bang (2007); Rampage the Durian!, Rock the City, Making Waves and Year End Celebrations (all at Esplanade, 2007); Zouk Out! (2007); Sembawang Fest (2006); Baybeats (2005 and 2006) and 2004 F1 Powerboat; as well as collaborated with special projects such as Rewind: Hitam Puteh Cinema on Wheels (2008), Jazzyjazz and The Razzmatazz with Cake Theatre (2008) and the Flipside Festival by The Esplanade (2009).
So, if you’re searching for some booty-shaking, anthem-singing, laughter-inducing, fun and good merry-making Rock and Roll, it’s time to catch onto these vivacious vibes. As the song ‘Shake & Bake’ begins, “If you want it, come and shake it, if it pleases you…”
